Canvas

Congratulations on finding the Canvas application in Kibana. You are in for a treat. Canvas is a whole new way of making data look amazing. Canvas combines data with colors, shapes, text, and your own imagination to bring dynamic, multi-page, pixel-perfect, data displays to screens large and small.

We made Canvas for people like us. We figure, you are probably people like us: you make neat stuff and you want to show that neat stuff to others. Canvas is for makers who are a little bit creative, a little bit technical, and whole lot of curious.

We’ve put together this Getting Started to get you up and running with Canvas.

If you want to dig into the expression language and the functions that drive Canvas, see the Canvas common functions and TinyMath functions.
